Place is as advertised, clean and comfortable. More room than we expected. The beds in the loft are comfortable, but the stairs are more like a ladder and you can’t stand up, so better for kids/young adults. Had everything we needed except a pasta strainer. Very quiet and peaceful area. It was easy to find and not too far from the center of Mentone. Hosts were easy to communicate with. We had a lovely stay.

Peaceful, grounding, and exactly what was needed.Tucked into the trees, this home was quiet, spotless, and instantly calming. You can feel the care in every detail—even the lighted switches made nights feel easy and effortless.It was the perfect place to slow down, breathe, and reset, with Little River Canyon and the falls just minutes away.Host answered every question within a minute or two. Best response times ever! And best host.Left feeling lighter than I arrived—and already want to come back.

Thanksgiving getaway

This is my family’s 3rd year traveling to the area for thanksgiving. We stayed in this tiny home cabin and loved it! It was very clean and cozy. My kids loved the loft and that they both had their own bed. My daughter especially loved the turtle lamp 💜 There were plenty of board games and card games provided that we enjoyed. We definitely recommend!

Nice and cozy cabin in the woods

We enjoyed the stay at the cabin. The location was very nice. Everything was just as described. There were some missed trash in the cleaning, which was taken care of. We enjoyed sitting on the porch under the lights and being by the fire with our kids. The weather was perfect. We would stay again.

Great little place

Very nice. This was our first encounter with a tiny home, and it was very comfortable, three of us slept and moved around the house comfortably and with ease. Everything was well thought out and every little thing needed was accounted for and made available. The only negative, which can also be viewed as a plus, is the lack of wifi and cell service at the cabin. We were very pleased with our experience at Tikabee Timbers!

Charming tiny home

We had a great time at this tiny home, it was perfect for our family of 3. The loft was great for my 8th years old daughter, she slept there and had a great time having her own area. There was plenty of space for us, there were tons of dvds and games to use, the kitchen was pretty well stocked up with species and utensils. There is a firepit in the front of the property with a lot of firewood to use. We went to the Desoto falls and little river waterfall, which were very nice. Overall, it is a great place to stay for a couple or small family.

Perfect Family Weekend Getaway

These property owners have thought of everything! Light switches are labeled, there are flashlights everywhere, and there are extra blankets. It was so nice to have a small pantry of condiments and seasonings and firewood! We planned on playing some of the games, but several games were missing pieces - but they still kept our 6 year old busy and playing! We wanted to disconnect and this was the best place for that - no wifi or service!

Cute

Very cute and quiet area. The home itself is nicely furnished and was pretty well stocked with basic necessities. We had a hard time regulating the temp inside. But that’s on us and the time of year. Hot during the day, cold at night. We couldn’t seem to predict when to turn on the heat/air. The instructions to get in and check in were very clear. Check out was even easier. A lot of the messages we got from the owner were informative and clear, but likely automated given we tried to get an early check in, but never heard back about it. The fire pit was perfect. The kids loved the loft and the games they provided. There was no WiFi when we went (we knew this before hand) but my 4 year old and 14 year old still had so much fun. They also provided LOTS of DVDs to watch as well. It was perfect for a long weekend, but it is indeed a tiny home. So if you’re not super close with the people you’re going with, you may want to get an additional home inside the community. The homes are close enough that you can walk to the others, but far enough that you feel like you have privacy and can still enjoy the scenery. The listing and the pictures are very accurate. It really is just as cute in real life.
